Welcome to MSFN.org !

I think, you're discover the unattented world of windows

Get one moment to read the big UnAttented guide from http://unattended.msfn.org/

Program added into windows cd are installed in post installation in fact, at the end of the windows install , the setup of your program is launched siltently and that's all, certains program allow associations file during setup ... search in Application installs if somebody has try your soft ...

Goodbye.

edit: okay I just understand it's just a exe ... so you can make a batch file which it copy the .exe in C:\Program Files\Spread32\ and after you import silenlty this reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.csv]
@="csv_spread32"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\csv_spread32]
@="CSV Files - Spread32"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\csv_spread32\shell\open\command]
@="C:\\Program Files\\Spread32\\spread32.exe \"%1\""

thats the thing, there is no setup required, its a standalone exe file run it and you got your application.

are there any guides that would show one how to add suffix association and all that stuff

when i search the forums i get about 10 pages of NON Related Results
